Why aren't you paying attention: influences and outcomes
This virtual series presented by Robin Greenfield, Ph.D. will focus on the topic of “attention.” How it is defined, its’ limitations, and factors that impact it. All individuals have external and internal influences on their attention. Children with more significant disabilities are not always able to manage those influences which, in turn, impacts their learning. Recognizing a child’s availability for learning is critical to designing and implementing a meaningful educational program. Register for sessions below.
